In the previous thread HERE, "DXer" (a.k.a. "Anonymous") argued that El-Shukrijumah called his mother from Afghanistan on September 13, 2001, to tell her that he was coming to the U.S. "DXer" views that as evidence that El-Shukrijumah mailed the anthrax letters. We're supposed to believe that El-Shukrijuma had absolutely no problem flying to the U.S. in the week after 9/11 to mail the letters. And, apparently, that was all he did, because there was no evidence that El-Shukrijuma did anything at all while he was supposedly in the US in September and October 2001.

Why couldn't someone else mail the letters? DXer has no answer. Why was it necessary for El-Shukrijumah to fly half way around the globe to do it? DXer has no answer. He just argues that El-Shukrijumah is known to have left the U.S. months before 9/11. But, he can't provide any evidence at all that El-Shukrijumah returned in time to mail the first anthrax letters on September 18, 2001.

Next, DXer argued that al Qaeda's lab in Kandahar had Ames anthrax. But, the facts say that the lab in Kandahar had no anthrax of any kind. DXer appears to be relying on some "false positive" readings where pieces of Ames DNA were believed to have been found in the Kandahar lab. Extensive tests done later found NO TRACE of any kind of anthrax. No doubt they planned to work with anthrax (they even got their inoculations), but there's no evidence they actually did anything with anthrax.

DXer also seems to believe that al Qaeda got their anthrax from Porton Down. But Porton Down Ames has been serially cultured so many times that it no longer has the same DNA as Ancestor Ames, which means the DNA is also different from the attack anthrax.

Now DXer is arguing about the fact that "Franklin Park, NJ" was part of the return address on the Senate anthrax letters, and how that must be because some of the 9/11 terrorists worshiped in a mosque in Fort Lauderdale, FL, that was across the street from a small park called "Franklin Park." He evidently cannot see that as a coincidence. However, of course, it must just be a coincidence that the anthrax letters were mailed 10 miles from a town in New Jersey called "Franklin Park."

Here are some simple facts:

Ivins had access to the source of the anthrax in the letters.
DXer has no evidence that al Qaeda had access to that source.

Ivins made Ames anthrax spores in his lab routinely.
DXer has no evidence that al Qaeda ever made any Ames anthrax spores.

The handwriting on the letters doesn't match Ivins' or Mohamed Atta's writing.
Ivins had reason to disguise his handwriting. Atta did not.

Ivins was within driving distance of the mailbox at the time of the mailings.
DXer doesn't know where El-Shukrijumah was at the time of the mailings.

A timeline of Ivins' activities can be found by clicking HERE.
"DXer" (a..k.a. "Anonymous") cannot even construct a logical timeline to support his beliefs. Sometimes he argues that al Qaeda must have used some Muslim agent to steal Ames anthrax from USAMRIID, other times he argues that al Qaeda obtained Ames from Porton Down. Sometimes he seems to argue that the letters were filled with anthrax in the USA. Other times he seems to argue that they were filled with anthrax in Afghanistan and then brought to the USA by El-Shukrijuma. When and why were the envelopes bought in Maryland? Why were there two different types of anthrax powder? Why weren't both batches of letters mailed at the same time? Why return to the same mail box to mail the second batch of letters. Why mail the letters in Princeton?

I could go on and on and on. The al Qaeda theory is absurd. I would have used the word "preposterous," but it wouldn't fit in the cartoon illustration at the top of this thread.

DXer needs to provide some EVIDENCE in support of his theory. It is preposterous to argue that the FBI has "no evidence" against Ivins without DXer providing anything that even resembles evidence to support his argument that al Qaeda was behind the anthrax mailings of 2001.

The
FBI’s case against Dr. Ivins is clearly bogus: no evidence, no
witnesses, an impossible timeline.

Here's how 9/11 Truther Elias Davidsson describes the 9/11 evidence:

There's
no evidence whatsoever that the 19 people accused
of mass murder boarded the planes on 9/11.

That quote from Davidsson can be found on a YouTube video by clicking HERE and going to the 33 minute mark.

A similar quote can be found on another Davidsson video at the 21
minute mark by clicking HERE:

There
is not a single item of evidence pointing that these attacks were
perpetrated by people coming from abroad. ... There is no single
proof that any foreigners committed these acts. No proof that any
Arabs went into these planes. And, so if these Arabs did not go
into these planes, then the official story must be a lie. ... The
truth is that there were no Muslims involved in this crime.

Interestingly, Davidsson explains what he finds impossible to believe about the
official version of what happened on 9/11. At about the 37 minute
mark in that same video, Elias Davidsson says,

We
cannot state that the passengers died in these crashes. We have
full reason to suspect that the passengers were murdered somewhere
else. Murdered in cold blood by the U.S. Government. ... It's
impossible to believe for most people. But, the fact that we
don't have evidence that people died in the crashes - we don't have
evidence - and it forces us to consider that they were killed somewhere
else. These people do not exist anymore. They have
died. There is no question about that. Their families mourn
them, and there are many people participating in the mourning.
... These people are certainly dead, and somebody murdered them.
And, I don't believe personally that they were in these planes, because
if they were in these planes, then somebody would have piloted these planes. And nobody in his right mind would pilot
these planes to crash these planes -- even a Muslim --- even a Muslim.
I'm sorry. Nobody in their
right mind would do that. Even absent all that I told you
about the lack of evidence, just the thought that somebody would have
piloted - with a pilot's license - would be capable of piloting a
civilian aircraft - which the alleged hijackers did not have - ....Even
beyond the fact that there is no evidence, the official story is so
fantastic - it is so science fiction - to believe that anybody in his
right mind had ... the capability and the wish to fly a plane like this
is so outrageous that to believe anybody would have crashed the planes
with these passengers - and kill themselves at the same time - is itself
implausible to the extreme.

for a talk by conspiracy theorist Barbara Honegger. It has some truly screwball comparisons between Pearl
Harbor and 9/11.
(Her slide show is HERE.) She believes that neither
Pearl Harbor nor 9/11 were
surprise attacks.

for a truly weird talk about
the anthrax attacks by conspiracy theorist Barry Kissin.

Click HERE
for an interview with conspiracy theorist Elizabeth Woodworth where she rationalizes
that disputing the official version of 9/11 doesn't require any attempt to prove any alternative version. She also believes Osama bin Laden had nothing to do with 9/11.

It appears that the beliefs of all the
9/11 and the anthrax conspiracy theorists can be summarized as follows:

They
find it impossible to believe
the government's version of what happened.They
believe the government officials must
be either incompetent or lying.The
government will not give them the evidence needed to prove a conspiracy.They
do not have the power needed to force
the release of the "truth."Therefore,
they want a new
investigation to find a "truth" they can believe.And
they are trying to convince the public to demand a new investigation.

Therefore, a conspiracy theorist might be defined as follows:

Someone who cannot believe the official version of events, who wants the government to provide him with facts to disprove the official claims, who considers any failure to provide complete and comprehensive facts to be proof of a conspiracy, who wants a new official investigation to prove what he believes to be true, and who is out trying to get other people to help him force the government to start a new investigation.

People who have knowledge of actual conspiracies aren't "conspiracy theorists" because they will provide the evidence they have of the criminal conspiracy. They don't ask the government to provide the evidence, nor will they consider it proof of a criminal conspiracy if the government doesn't do as they ask. Ed
